About this listen

Gerrymandering is widely regarded as a distortion of the democratic process. Gerrymandering refers to any deliberate manipulation of electoral boundaries to favor one political party or group. These methods can dramatically skew election outcomes despite little change in overall voter preference. The Supreme Court has declined to review political gerrymandering by states. Congress, however, has the authority to end gerrymandering by requiring that congressional district boundaries be drawn by independent commissions.
